My Interests

Stratagems for enduring the mindless zombies I am forced to interact with daily, socratic method, my cat.

***

I'd like to meet:



***

***Aretha Franklin... I SAY A LITTLE PRAYER... great version of a great song by Bacharach and David... I swear I can remember seeing this on T.V. when I was a kid back in the 60's... I'm getting so old, guess I'll die soon... you must love Aretha's stylish attire in this clip... you must, you must. Sock it to me! Sock it to me!***

***The Stranglers... WALK ON BY... one of the most astonishingly cool covers ever of a Bacherach and David song... this is punk rock mate... play it loud. ***

*** Andres Segovia playing ASTURIAS by Isaac Albèniz.***

*** Fragonard

***Richter

***Louise and I find those last two very interesting.
